Episode 190 How to make a double job change for a stagnant person (2)
Not only time, but space itself seemed to have been cut out of cause and effect.
A clock colored in achromatic colors.
There, Macedros, whose smile had completely disappeared, looked at Jinhyeok.
“I guess… I don’t think he’s just that kind of person.”
“That’s what I told you. Listen and decide.”
Jinhyuk shrugged his shoulders.
“Let me ask you first: How do you know my name?”
“‘Rotting Heart’ is the name of the Demon King I serve. This will solve all your future questions at once.”
Macedros’s eyebrows twitched when a familiar name came out.
There’s no way you wouldn’t know.
How could you not know?
One of only 10 Demon Lords in the Demon World.
‘The suggestion made to me by the 5th layer was so helpful.’
On the 5th floor, he threatened rather than encouraged me to change to his apostle.
At the time, I was annoyed because I received annoying curses and curses, but now that I look back, I can see that it was really useful.
“……To be directly related to the Demon King…”
“That’s right. I am the ‘black apostle’ who serves him. The reason I came here was originally to reinforce information about the holy relic.”
Jinhyuk nodded towards one of the frozen people.
Melena belongs to the Mine Association.
There is no way that Macedros, a demon, would miss the fact that the demonic energy unique to demons is ingrained in his body.
Furthermore, the special class ‘Black Apostle’, who had the Demon King as his guardian, was a player who climbed the tower as the Demon King’s hands and feet, and was in a position to access various information about the Demon World faster than anyone else.
“indeed…….”
Macedros nodded as if he was convinced.
If the target is a Black Apostle, he may have heard his true name through the ‘Rotting Heart’.
He also knows the location of the holy object that can liberate the sealed Demon King.
It all made sense.
but.
“Why would the Apostle of the Rotting Heart tell me the location of the holy object? There would be no benefit to you if I unsealed the person I serve, right?”
The interests of the demon world were also quite complicated, and the Rotting Heart and the demon king served by Makeros were not allies.
Of course, that fact was also within Jinhyuk’s knowledge.
“That’s what I’m saying.”
Jinhyuk pretended to have a calm expression. It’s a bonus that the corners of her mouth turn up slyly.
“As you know, our Demon King is not interested in ranking competitions or anything like that. So bad that even demons say they won’t work for our Demon King.”
A demon lord who transforms a seemingly useful player into a black apostle and then enjoys playing games with him.
That was the tendency of the demon lord ‘Beriel’, nicknamed ‘Rotting Heart’.
When all the angles fell into place, Macedros’ doubts were finally completely removed.
This is because this information was truly internal information that could never be found out unless the other party was a Black Apostle.
“That’s fun. So, do you want to change ropes?”
“Looking at it, it looks like the Demon King you serve is active. I like an ambitious master. I will hand over the position of the holy object, but promise me a future in return.”
“Promise me a future… Are you saying you want to become our Black Apostle?”
“Yes. It won’t be easy because of the contract, but there is one way.”
“I’m listening.”
“If you can enter the ‘misaligned rift’… you will be able to break the contract with the Demon Lord. All you have to do is give me the key to enter there.”
[Misaligned crack].
okay. This is the key.
If you get trapped in a crack that completely changes the concept of space and time, you will be trapped inside for at least a year.
An apostle who has not received direct replenishment of demon energy for more than three months will eventually be forcibly disconnected from the demon king.
‘… … You can use this to get a ticket to enter the crack.’
Jinhyuk managed to calm his trembling heart.
The crack, which was overwhelmingly rich in magical energy compared to other places, was an incredible event in itself.
Not only would you be able to increase your skill proficiency, but the tasty experience monsters and extreme survival environment there would definitely serve as a foundation for growth.
‘Hurry up and bite.’
Not a bad deal, right?
One side obtains the location of the long-awaited sacred object.
One side gets a reward for informing about it.
As a bonus, you can avoid getting hit and fighting here, so it’s literally killing three birds with one stone.
Of course, for me it means killing three birds with one stone.
“…….”
After thinking for a moment, Macedros asked again.
“Do you want to voluntarily enter the rift? It’s a place that even demons are reluctant to go to?”
“If you want to play in the water further up, you have to endure that much hardship.”
“Hahaha! I like that attitude. Well, I guess he was chosen as an apostle because of his shameless and vicious nature.”
Machedros burst into laughter at Jinhyeok’s sly answer.
It seems that he quite liked the honest and direct tone of voice.
“Thank you for the compliment. I take it as an indication of acceptance.”
Jinhyuk smiled brightly.
however.

“no.”
Macedros shook his head.
It does not mean rejection.
Rather… … .
He was hoping for something different with a face full of anticipation and curiosity.
“No matter how much you know, I can’t accept it until I see your skills in person.”
An opportunity to become a direct subordinate of the Demon King.
There’s no way I could give that kind of talent away just for the sake of it.
Of course, it was a statement that conveyed the will that nothing could be promised until the appropriate worthiness was proven.
“I’m pretty tired from constantly using my body. Can’t we do it next time?”
“I’m sorry, but there is no next time. If you don’t meet my expectations, you’ll have to pay for ruining my plans.”
Does elimination mean death?
The ideology is very similar to that damn company. It may be a joke, but it sends shivers down my spine after experiencing it.
“Before we start, can I ask you one thing?”
“Of course.”
“First of all, how thorough is the security of this barrier-like thing that we have set up now?”
“Not only the administrator, but no other being can peek inside this place. There is no way that even a fingernail’s worth of magic will leak to the outside. So, you don’t have to worry about that.”
Macedros shrugged.
“But why are you curious about that?”
“It’s nothing special.”
only.
“I didn’t want my abilities to be discovered by annoying people.”
Originally… … I wasn’t planning on using this ability considering the Egyptians’ views.
However, if the situation is like this, the story is different.
“It’s as if there was no need to appear in a low-key manner if it weren’t for those restrictions.”
It’s a face that doesn’t trust you at all.
Well, it can only seem that way if you just say it.
then.
Just give it a little taste.
How arrogant it was to threaten him by saying it was a test or something.
Moment.
Color was added to the colorless world.
‘This… … ?’
An earthquake occurred in the city of Macedros.
It’s faint, but unmistakable.
I definitely felt a sense of incongruity with the black and white clock.
This cannot happen.
The ability to influence a barrier that is perfectly controlled.
“You… what the hell.”
Macedrus’ words did not reach their conclusion.
[The unique ability ‘Sanctuary of the Sun’ is activated.]
[The unique ability ‘Dark Heaven Demon Emperor’ is activated.]
Two abilities were revealed.
[‘Black Sanctuary’ is built.]
Kukukukukukuku!
The world of imagery has changed.
＊＊＊
Black Sanctuary.
It refers to a sacred place that has not been polluted by any external forces.
and.
This place is made up of black sun and desert… … .
It was enough to give the enemy a heaviness like the deep sea.
“Do we need proof of qualifications anymore?”
Jinhyuk asked.
With force like Mount Tai… … It was a question.
“…….”
Macedros remained silent with a stiff expression on his face.
Before the sanctuary was activated, it felt like I was attending a human entertainment party.
After the sanctuary was activated, the concept of Jinhyeok was completely redefined.
‘I never thought a person like this would exist… … .’
One step.
If you take one more step forward, you may be swallowed by the black sand and never be able to come out.
This world was so far removed from common sense that it made me think that way.
‘It’s not like you can’t kill him if you do your best… … .’
That’s not a test.
It’s just a bloody battle where you have to risk your life and your life.
More than anything, I feel like I have to do my best against humans to have a chance of winning. It was a ridiculous thing for Macedros.
“Your qualifications are sufficient. In fact, at this point, it would be right to ask you to come here. I’ve met several players who have become Black Apostles, but you are by far the most unique among them.”
I mean this.
That’s how much I coveted the person in front of me.
If a person with such enormous power becomes their ‘black apostle’, they can instantly gather holy relics and resurrect the Demon King… … .
Once again.
Yes, you can try to reach the top of the tower once again.
In an instant, Macedros dissipated the magic he had gathered.
At the same time, Jinhyuk also disbanded ‘Black Sanctuary’.
‘Are there some idiots who have become apostles? shit. This might be a bit of a pain… … .’
A brief worry passed by.
Wooooow!
The blackened clock returned to its original state, and time that had stopped began to flow again.
With that… … .
The deal was done.
Macedros extended his hand towards Jinhyeok.
Before I knew it, a black key appeared in my hand.
“This is the key you want.”
[Key of Crack]
Difficulty of Obtaining: Not measurable
Contents: This is the key to enter the crack, and is possessed only by a very small number of the powerful forces in the upper echelons of the tower. Obtaining it itself is very difficult, and even if you do get the key, finding the crack is another problem.
I finally got my hands on this.
And that’s just because you’re good at speaking.
The pleasure of having things fall into place as if gears were meshing together was incomparable to anything.
‘I was a little scared that they might ask us to keep fighting.’
If he had not been able to copy the unique ability equivalent to godhood, Macedros would have attacked without hesitation.
By his standards, it was at a level that was far superior to that of a decent boss.
After finishing everything, Jinhyuk looked around.
Macedros had disappeared, leaving behind a black key.
All that’s left is to collect the players and the rest of the Lockheed Guild who have lost consciousness from exhaustion and get out of here.
It was then.
“Master, are you okay? That guy from earlier…!”
“Did a human kill that ignoble guy?”
Wolyoung and Caracal came running in one step.
Macedros must have felt quite intimidated, but judging from the fact that they did not lose their sanity in the midst of it all, both of them are objects.
‘Well, these are the employees I hired, so of course they should be at this level.’
Jinhyuk chuckled and lightly tapped Wolyeong and Caracal on the shoulders.
“I’ll tell you later. First, take the players and go to the maze entrance. Then, don’t get noticed and come back.”
Of course, getting out there and being in the spotlight is also important. Because I deliberately worked under a mask to increase Unknown’s brand value.
But more than that… … .
There was one thing left to consider right now.
After a while, Jinhyeok, who had confirmed that everyone had disappeared, muttered into the air.
“I know you’re watching me. I’m sure you have something to say to me, right?”
OK.
Partschut!
Sparks flew out in the air as if waiting.
